Joe, Roy, I wish I could have tapped into your conversation.
You are two of a kind, a kind we have all become. We bring with us here a world of successes or near misses, strong wills or cautious resolution, able bodies or failing postures, determined faith or inquiring introspect. None of this matters.
The girls here have always known this, the guys here are founding it. That Mickey’s purposeful collecting of souls has broken down our façades, exposing our souls. But warmly, gently, openly, the ways men are not supposed to possess, or show.
There are many of us here, you two, Larry, Dave, Bill, Bryan, Randy…
Joe, you showed me at the gathering in 2000, Roy, you are unbending yourself here on the porch.
All of us have been pried open by The Mick, forcing us to bind, something that a world that doesn’t understand him, would never let us do.
No longer just fans. Even friendship does not describe it right anymore. The girls probably know what we have become. We fellows will know it in time.
-J
